Tinnitus Questions Answered
Dear John,
I answered your survey and hope it is helpful to you.
I have decided to seek help for my tinnitus and am encouraged by the letters from customers that you are getting.
For approximately 8 years, I have had a continuous ringing tone in my left ear with a ‘chink, chink,’ noise from time to time. The ringing does seem to vary in intensity, or maybe there are times when I simply don’t notice it – I’m not really sure. It’s at its most noticeable when I get sinus-like problems, affecting my nasal area, top of my eyes and throat, which is the case at the moment. At these times, there seems to be a slight increase of pressure in my left ear. Also, when I scrape my finger around the lobe area of my left ear, there can be a muffled, echoey sensation which I don’t get with my right ear. However, my right ear can sometimes ‘chink, chink’ from time to time as well, but I don’t get the continuous high-pitched drone.
It may be relevant to tell you that I had grommets surgically placed in my ears when I was a child (not sure if it was both or just in my left). My hearing in my left ear is not terrible, but it is quite poor. My right ear is a little better in terms of hearing. I don’t need hearing aids.
The other thing that I am wondering is whether I caused it by not properly using Hopi Ear Candles a number of years ago, roughy around the time when the problem started. For example, I might have left them to long on my ear.
I do hope you can help. I have tried to give a full idea of my problem, so ‘fingers crossed’!
Thanks

Hello Peter,
It really sounds to me as if you could have tinnitus induced from a sinus related problem. I would suggest that you read the info at this page http://www.t-gone.com/sinus-tinnitus.htm That would certainly be my recommendation for you to order.
Regards,
John
